  @rodiprimes yeah I figured 😭😭 tho what’s funny is that I’ve had no problem adjusting to paladins on pc from getting used to the controls with overwatch

  Game is not optimized to this day and they barely work on fixing the balance issues. The only players were ex overwatch players who were playing it because they were mad with overwatch but now they're realizing that it's a **** game and it was never going to actually rival OW

  @ryanscottborman @heatloss1986 @AlexLuck9 Problem with the drone AWACS is that lack of crew, and why we need to risk losing lives. I remember when Global Hawk Block 40 showed up in Afghan. They told everyone they could provide NRT overwatch to convoys/SOF. We at JSTARS were pissed because that was a lie.

  Uninstalled Marvel Rivals. The state that the game is in right now is somehow less fun than 5v5 Overwatch. I can't do this anymore. Wake ******** up dev team. Fix your damn game.

  @Greenpig117 >overwatch players came over Bro we were there day 1😭😭😭 And ow players knew where problems might appear and were right. I want rivals to succeed long term but holy ****, not with this attitude

  My English is so broken, because I'd absorved non stop words and accents of every english speaking country... I blame nijisanji and the aussie overwatch content creators.

  @PotNoodleOW i had my first crash in 8 years of Overwatch as well last week. the process stopped responding & locked my desktop so hard I had to make a new desktop to bring up task manager & kill it.

  @pampurins i would say that its not really an issue... and that ive survived with a 90% heal reduction... but... overwatch is genuinely built differently and the hero design philosophy never supported cauterized healing, so i get it. it feels suffocating. idk how to help though

  Kevin Nogilny (@CookiesAndPilk) reported 33 minutes ago

  @CalamariSteven @JoshLavis @Splitgate Overwatch cosmetics carried over to Overwatch 2. It's not unreasonable to think a free to play live service game's entire means of keeping players financially invested in the game should have some carryover when the developer migrates over to a new free to play live service...

  @DarkDragonMasta You’re right, the other live service games are charging $10 for recolors and $25-$30 for costumes (Fortnite, Overwatch, Diablo). Name a live service game that is cheaper than MR? BP next month? All BPs in all these games give maximum value, that’s not even the same comparison.

  @PlayOverwatch Please fix overwatch 2 for the Nintendo switch 2

  @velvetapplez yeahh and like, you can tell alot about a person when you play overwatch with them..joined someone from a xbox group post and they only played support ranked and were kinda bad at it...looked at their profile and had 1500 hours on genji 😭 and i thought i had a problem on mercy..

  Daph!! ☆-☆ (@Daphne_de_Vil) reported 40 minutes ago

  @trabucooo1 @OverwatchNaeri Yeah that’s kiriko, and everyone agrees its an issue, but she is basically overwatch’s poster girl and also i thoight u didnt care about skins.. so why are u speaking so much on skins now if they add nothing to the game?

  @juwliaX3 I can’t remember off the top of my head but search tiktok for the owl tokens code and just look up the overwatch code glitch and you can buy them, I got the Toronto defiant tracer with it a few months ago

  @XboxSupport I’ve tried to dm and reach out for support multiple times and it doesn’t seem to work. I’ve been continually disconnected from Marvel rivals for no apparent reason. I also cannot login into Overwatch 2. Again for no apparent reasons. Is there anything that can be done fix this?

  talie (@rasbprrry) reported 50 minutes ago

  why does overwatch constantly have the “the server closed due to an unexpected error” bug. FIX YOUR GAME PLEASE

  @MulticamOw overwatch had this same problem.

• 
  Angel (@Cat_Alan_Vibes) reported 56 minutes ago

  I kind of have a problem where I associate things together by words. A tweet will be like “this is a bad omen” and mentally I’m like “omg omen from overwatch?”. Or someone texts something & I’ll latch on to one word that I remember is in a song lyric and send them the song lyrics

  @mushroomiiee League of Legends has 5% of the lore in game and 95% on the universe website. Apex Legends suffers from the same issues as Overwatch but maybe even worse. It comes with the territory of the genre I'm afraid.

  I am so grateful to of been seen by Overwatch again. However I am completely heart broken I cannot receive the copy. 🥹💔

  big7pointer (@Big7pointer) reported 59 minutes ago

  @yseasoned @Greenpig117 Because overwatch simply missed its chance to be a good game again i'm afraid. Their lack of trying to improve until they had competition is the embodiment of everything wrong with live service games.

  @BlizzardCS one game of overwatch competitive I'd like to not play a team of all people on new accounts who are smurfing. Literally is a problem yet you guys don't address it. Ruins my experience playing and never can progress even at low ranks of competitive
